Year of the tiger

55 ++ 🤣

Remember the tube stopping at Moorgate station on the day of the final(different line obviously) & the whole train falling silent. With regard to the final just remember Johnny Miller putting two corners straight outbehind the goal

Club Canary to Wembley with other half & son aged 4. Some family questioned that he was going to the final(he was a season ticket holder & been to a few away games), I knew there would be absolutely no problem with the Sunderland fans. Main memory pre match of walking up & down Wembley Way with son, wearing City shirt miles to big for him carrying a little city flag. Lost track of how many Sunderland fans stopped to shake his hand, one even tried to tuck him under his arm & take him to the Sunderland end.

They haven’t actually started building yet so an extra bulb or two might be necessary yo see them through

Was at the Hewlett school. So cold they flooded the quadrangle & turned it into a skating rink. Health & safety would have a fit today. We finally played the 3rd round tie on Mon 4 March, the replay 2 days later, 4th round v Newcastle on 13th, Man City in the 5th on the 16th & went out to Leicester on 30th

By that reasoning, there are no members as the first half of the membership fee has been refunded.

The most capped City player has 42 caps

I see from a tweet from Kieran Maguire that the £250m is an advance from future tv monies so not so generous after all. Also we’re told there are no dissenting voices in the EFL but already Andy Holt(Accrington) &Lincolns Chairman have been very critical

Unfortunately ifollow accounts are club specific & non transferable. I’ve had to use two other email addresses at Plymouth & Newport. Expensive but enjoyable two matches. The commentary tonight was interesting, made Goreham seem like the model of impartiality

All that was needed on the original post was ‘if they can afford to’. No need to abuse those who will help the club if they can.

Now over 50000. Ludicrous that you can book to be on 3000 people at the Royal Albert Hall at Christmas, all of whom will be arriving by public transport(unless a very large car park has miraculously appeared) but you can’t have any sports fans in the open air.

I know I’m in a very small minority on here but I don’t see we were in any trouble at all until Tettey had to come out of midfield. He is written off by so many but he is still probably the best player in that out &out defensive midfield role

With regard to u21s, I believe (As rules were stated after EFL vote)you don’t include anyone born on or after 1/1/1999 unless they are loans. By my calculations that would mean a squad of 26 with Aaron’s, Mumba, McCallum, Martin, Idah U21 s. Assume the odd one out would be Famewo who may well go on loan

Think Adshead is training with Telstar in Netherlands with a view to a loan

I see that it’s Portsmouth first team they’re playing

On the bridge over the motorway just outside Burnley waiting for the police escort.....twice. First time two of the coaches decided to go & watch Wigan v Bury, they gave us our own stand.

Pukki seems to play much better with Stiepi in the side, also he scored 9 goals last season. Just on the subject of goals, last season our 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th highest scorers were Vrancic, Hernandez, Stiepermann & Buendia. This season by a combination of form, ability, lack of game time& injuries , they’ve scored 1, 1, 0& 0 infact Emi hasn’t scored since he was sent off against QPR. Hopefully they can regain form(their level?)next season

I thought their new loaded foreign owners had only just taken over

Just hope when the PL is shown on tv behind closed doors, we don’t have to put up with the commentator apologising every few minutes for any “inappropriate” language you might have heard. That statement winds me up enough normally, it isn’t a kids tea party for heaven sake.

The question marks are back row Colin Metcalfe front row Alistair Miller & Gerry Mannion

63/64 squa I think prior to the signing of Ron Davies & after sale of Burton & Hill. Can name them all but will won’t spoil it for others

Was nearer the front & don't mind the view. Prefer that to the shallow rake at Liverpool, Chelsea lower tier etc. Might have something to due with my height & people standing in front of you.

Level 4 seats available on website, level 5 haven't appeared yet

The was a line of stewards at a higher level so I assume they had those levels as well

They seem to be selling one level at a time. Level 1was on sale yesterday & this morning. Now level 4. They've also got level 5 tickets which I assume will be last to be sold. Personally think higher levels are better views
